Levitski Zakonik 26

Studie

   

1 Nemojte graditi sebi idola ni likova rezanih, niti stupova podižite, ni kamena sa slikama mećite u svojoj zemlji da mu se klanjate; jer sam ja Gospod Bog vaš.

2 Držite subote moje, i svetinju moju poštujte; ja sam Gospod.

3 Ako uzživite po mojim uredbama, i zapovesti moje uzdržite i uščinite,

4 Davaću vam dažd na vreme, i zemlja će rađati rod svoj, i drveta će u polju rađati rod svoj;

5 I vršidba će vam stizati berbu vinogradsku, a berba će vinogradska stizati sejanje, i ješćete hleb svoj do sitosti, i živećete bez straha u zemlji svojoj.

6 Jer ću dati mir zemlji, te ćete spavati a neće biti nikoga da vas plaši; učiniću, te će nestati zle zveri iz zemlje, i mač neće prolaziti preko vaše zemlje.

7 Nego ćete terati neprijatelje svoje, i padaće pred vama od mača.

8 Vas će petorica terati stotinu, a vas stotina teraće deset hiljada, i padaće neprijatelji vaši pred vama od mača.

9 I obratiću se k vama, i učiniću vam da rastete, i umnožiću vas, i utvrdiću zavet svoj s vama.

10 I ješćete žito staro, od mnogo godina, i izasipaćete staro kad dođe novo.

11 I namestiću stan svoj među vama, i duša moja neće mrzeti na vas.

12 I hodiću među vama, i biću vam Bog, i vi ćete biti moj narod.

13 Ja sam Gospod Bog vaš, koji vas izvedoh iz zemlje misirske da im ne robujete, i polomih palice jarma vašeg, i ispravih vas da hodite pravo.

14 Ako li me ne uzaslušate, i ne učinite sve ove zapovesti,

15 Ako povrgnete uredbe moje i duši vašoj omrznu zakoni moji da ne tvorite sve zapovesti moje, i raskinete zavet moj,

16 I ja ću vama učiniti ovo: Pustiću na vas strah, suvu bolest i vrućicu, koje će vam oči iskvariti i dušu ucveliti; i zaludu ćete sejati seme svoje, jer će ga jesti neprijatelji vaši.

17 I okrenuću lice svoje nasuprot vama, i seći će vas neprijatelji vaši, i koji mrze na vas biće vam gospodari, i bežaćete kad vas niko ne tera.

18 Ako me ni tada ne stanete slušati, karaću vas još sedam puta više za grehe vaše.

19 Potrću ponos sile vaše, i učiniću da nebo nad vama bude kao gvožđe, a zemlja vaša kao bronza.

20 Snaga će se vaša trošiti uzalud, jer zemlja vaša neće rađati roda svog, i drveta po zemlji neće rađati roda svog.

21 Ako mi uzidete nasuprot i ne budete hteli slušati me, dodaću vam sedam puta više muka prema gresima vašim.

22 Pustiću na vas zveri poljske, koje će vam decu izjesti, i stoku potrti i vas umaliti, i opusteće putevi vaši.

23 Ako se ni od toga ne popravite, nego mi još uzidete nasuprot,

24 I ja ću vama ići nasuprot, i biću vas još sedam puta više za grehe vaše.

25 Pustiću na vas mač, koji će osvetiti moj zavet; a kad se sležete u gradove svoje, tada ću pustiti pomor među vas, i bićete predani u ruke neprijatelju.

26 I kad vam slomim potporu u hlebu, deset će žena peći hleb vaš u jednoj peći, i davaće vam hleb vaš na meru, i ješćete a nećete se nasititi.

27 Ako me ni tako ne stanete slušati, nego mi uzidete nasuprot,

28 I ja ću vama s gnevom ići nasuprot, i sedam puta većma karaću vas za grehe vaše.

29 I ješćete meso od sinova svojih, i meso od kćeri svojih ješćete.

30 Razvaliću visine vaše, i oboriću idole vaše, i metnuću trupove vaše na trupove gadnih bogova vaših, i mrziće duša moja na vas.

31 I obratiću gradove vaše u pustoš, i razoriću svetinje vaše, i neću više mirisati mirisa vašeg.

32 I opusteću zemlju da će joj se čuditi neprijatelji vaši, koji će živeti u njoj.

33 A vas ću rasejati po narodima, i učiniću da vas gone s golim mačem; i zemlja će vaša biti pusta i gradovi vaši raskopani.

34 Tada će zemlji biti mile subote njene za sve vreme dokle bude pusta; i kad budete u zemlji svojih neprijatelja, zemlja će počivati, i biće joj mile subote njene.

35 Za sve vreme dokle bude pusta počivaće, jer nije počivala u vaše subote, kad ste u njoj živeli.

36 A koji vas ostanu, metnuću strah u srca njihova u zemljama neprijatelja njihovih, te će ih goniti list kad šušne zaljuljavši se, i oni će bežati kao ispred mača, i padaće a niko ih neće terati.

37 I padaće jedan preko drugog kao od mača, a niko ih neće terati; i nećete se moći držati pred neprijateljima svojim.

38 Nego ćete izginuti među narodima, i proždreće vas zemlja neprijatelja vaših.

39 A koji vas ostanu, čileće za bezakonje svoje u zemlji neprijatelja svojih, i za bezakonje otaca svojih čileće.

40 Ali ako priznadu bezakonje svoje i bezakonje otaca svojih po gresima, kojima mi grešiše i kojima mi idoše nasuprot,

41 Te i ja njima idoh nasuprot i odvedoh ih u zemlju neprijatelja njihovih; ako se tada ponizi srce njihovo neobrezano, i bude im pravo što su pokarani za bezakonje svoje,

42 Tada ću se opomenuti zaveta svog s Jakovom, i zaveta svog sa Isakom, i zaveta svog sa Avramom opomenuću se, i zemlje ću se opomenuti.

43 Kada se zemlja oprosti njih i budu joj mile subote njene kad opusti s njih, i njima bude pravo što su pokarani za bezakonje svoje, jer sudove moje povrgoše i duši njihovoj omrzoše uredbe moje.

44 A zato ni onda kad budu u zemlji neprijatelja svojih neću ih povrći niti ću tako omrznuti na njih da ih potrem i raskinem zavet svoj sa njima; jer sam ja Gospod Bog njihov.

45 Nego ću se njih radi opomenuti zaveta sa starima njihovim, koje izvedoh iz zemlje misirske narodima na vidiku da im budem Bog, ja Gospod.

46 Ovo su uredbe i sudovi i zakoni, koje postavi Gospod između sebe i sinova Izrailjevih na gori Sinajskoj preko Mojsija.

Apocalypse Explained # 674

/ 1232  
  

674. There was a great earthquake, signifies a notable change of state of the interiors with those who are of the church. This is evident from the signification of "a great earthquake," as being a notable change of the state of the church; for the "earth" signifies the church, "quaking" change of state, and "great" what is notable. (That an "earthquake" signifies in the Word a change of state of the church, see above, n. 400, 499.)

[2] The change of state in respect to the truths and goods of the church evidently sprang from causes that are described in the preceding verse, that is, because the two witnesses that had been killed and restored to life went up by command into heaven in the cloud, and their enemies beheld them. Thence it may be seen that the cause of this was the separation of the good from the evil, as has been shown in the preceding articles, where the going up of the two witnesses is explained. But this cannot be presented to the understanding unless it first be told how things are in the spiritual world; for the things described in this verse, namely, that "there was a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and there were killed in the earthquake names of men seven thousand, and the rest became afraid and gave glory to the God of heaven," are things that take place, and in fact have already taken place at the time when the Last Judgement was at hand, but in the spiritual world, and not in the natural world; for when the good there are to be separated from the evil, and the good are to be protected from being harmed by the evil, then the good are taken away from the societies and the evil are left, according to the Lord's words in Matthew:

Two [men] shall be in the field, one shall be taken, the other shall be left; two [women] shall be grinding, one shall be taken, the other shall be left (Matthew 24:40, 41).

This may be seen explained in the Arcana Coelestia 4334, 4335). When the good are taken away there occurs in the societies in which the good and evil had been together, a notable change in respect to the things that pertain to the church.

[3] But the cause of this change shall be further disclosed. In the spiritual world there is a communication of all affections, and sometimes of thoughts; and within each society there is a general communication, extending itself from the middle of the society in every direction even to the boundaries, much as light spreads forth from a center to the circumferences. The variations and changes of the affections that arise from this communication and its extension spring from an influx of the affections from other societies, either above or at the sides, also from the newcomers that enter the society, and also from a few or many being taken away from the society.

[4] The societies upon which the Last Judgment came consisted both of the good and of the evil, but of such evil as were interiorly but not exteriorly opposed to the goods of love and the truths of doctrine; for exteriorly these were able to act rightly and justly and to speak piously and truly, not however for the sake of the right, of justice, of piety, and of truth, but from habit acquired in the world, for the sake of fame, glory, honor, gain, and the various delights of the natural loves, also on account of the laws and their penalties. For this reason, although they were interiorly evil, yet they could be together with those who were both exteriorly and interiorly good. When, therefore, the good were to be separated from those who merely appeared good in external form, their external good vanished, and their internal evil appeared; for they were held in that external good by communication with those within the same society who were not only exteriorly but also interiorly good, as has been said above. So when external good was taken away from the evil their interiors were opened; and these were full of mere evil and filthy things, which made evident of what quality they were in themselves. Such, then, is what is meant in particular by "the two witnesses going up by command into heaven in the cloud, and their enemies beholding them;" and here that "in that hour there was a great earthquake," namely, that when that state came a notable change took place in respect to those things that pertain to the church.
